My low-key cultivation of immortality was discovered by the emperor in my diary.

At the edge of that deep, dark pit, half of the golden-winged roc demon body remained, charred black as charcoal.

Jin Lei remained motionless, carefully observing the chaotic battle unfolding before him.

The power of that beam of light from just now still makes him tremble.

He witnessed his best friend Hong Ling and the menacing Kuang Dao being reduced to nothingness in an instant under the bombardment of the light cannon, without even having time to resist.

He's really something now; he doesn't even know where to begin with his regrets.

He could only secretly rejoice that he was currently parasitizing a demon race. Thanks to his strong body and the burst of his bloodline, he was able to withstand the attack from the Nascent Soul level.

Even so, the severe damage he suffered was difficult to repair, and his demonic body was extremely weak.

If it weren't for the fifth-order grand formation protecting this area, he would have already abandoned his broken demon body, parasitized within the demon core, and quietly escaped.

But at this moment, he could only barely maintain his life in this perilous place, secretly plotting a way to escape.

That said, Ji Ying was truly useless. A powerful Nascent Soul cultivator couldn't even subdue a human Nascent Soul cultivator, and instead had to coerce him into helping. He was utterly incompetent.

Jin Lei quickly weighed the options and concluded that ignoring Ji Ying's telepathic messages and maintaining this half-dead facade was the best course of action.

After all, the white-robed female cultivator's methods were far too ruthless, and the traps she set were exquisitely crafted.

He was already seriously injured, and if he got involved, his situation would become even more dangerous.

Ji Ying's voice transmission sounded again, tinged with anger and urgency, but Jin Lei remained unmoved, like a corpse.

Helping is out of the question; the only way to escape is to play dead.

Lying on the ground, seemingly on the verge of death, Jin Lei's eyes darted around, and suddenly an idea came to him.

He transmitted his voice to Ji Ying with a slightly excited tone: "Brother Ji Ying, I have a brilliant idea. Why don't you lend me a hand and let me parasitize that white-robed female cultivator? I only need ten drops of that bottle of Demon Abyss Water."

Upon hearing this, Ji Ying frowned and retorted telepathically, "Ten drops? That's too much! How do I know how much Demon Abyss Water is in that bottle? What if there's only one drop in total?"

Ji Ying was not surprised by Jin Lei's idea of ​​parasitizing Chu Lengyu, and was already scheming about how to gain greater benefits from it.

Jin Lei then said, "How about this? Let the God of Plague be our witness. I only want one-third of that bottle of Demon Abyss Water, how about that?"

After a heated negotiation, the two finally reached an agreement: the water of the Demon Abyss would be divided 82/80, and after the Golden Lightning Parasite successfully took hold, Ji Ying would have the priority to choose three items from the female cultivator as his spoils.

Jin Lei was secretly pleased with himself, thinking that his plan was brilliant. He could achieve his goal by using Ji Ying's power and also get a share of the spoils from the Demon Abyss.

As for whether the two will fall out again after the matter is settled, let's consider that later.

Ji Ying held nothing back at this moment.

He frantically channeled the spiritual power within his body, causing the sword in his hand to radiate a dazzling light like the bright moon, its sharpness surpassing even that of the past.

Under this powerful sword light, Chu Lengyu's flight path was quickly restricted, and she found that she could hardly escape the ever-present sword light.

Just as Chu Lengyu was wondering why Ji Ying was suddenly going all out, a golden light caught her attention.

A golden demon core slowly emerged from the charred corpse of the roc on the ground, then transformed into a blur and flew rapidly toward her.

At the same time, Ji Ying used the sword escape technique to flash his figure and approach her in front of her.

His eyes had turned an eerie gray, staring intently at Chu Lengyu as if trying to see through her soul.

Faced with attacks from both sides, Chu Lengyu did not hesitate. She took out the Qingzhou Cauldron and put the demon core into it. No matter how much the demon tried to break free, it could not escape.

Seeing that Jin Lei had been taken away and trapped by Chu Lengyu, Ji Ying suddenly changed her mind.

Why let someone else benefit from such a great opportunity?

His gaze fell on Chu Lengyu, and he secretly made plans in his mind.

This woman is not only exceptionally talented, but also possesses numerous treasures, including the waters of the Demon Abyss.

If we could parasitize her, wouldn't we be able to seize her treasures effortlessly, without having to share them with others?

Ji Ying took a deep breath and immediately activated her clan's secret technique.

His pupils gradually changed, transforming into deep gray vortexes that seemed capable of devouring all light and captivating the soul.

Chu Lengyu noticed Ji Ying's unusual behavior, frowned slightly, and immediately became wary.

She was preparing to retreat in preparation for a possible attack, but under the gaze of that gray vortex, she was surprised to find that she could not move an inch.

The gray vortex in Ji's pupils spun even faster.

His voice grew even deeper: "Today, you will have nothing!"
